Use of Biocontrol Fungi with Carbofuran in the Control of Root Knot Nematodes in Okra
M. J. Zaki and M. A. Maqbool

Abstract: Use of biocontrol fungi viz., Verticillium chlamydosporium, Paecilomyces lilacinus and Talaromyces flavus alone or mixed with carbofuran significantly (P<0.05) reduced root knot indices on okra plants as compared to control. Maximum reduction in glass formation was observed in the treatments where carbofuran was used either with V. chlamydosporium or P. lilacinus. Greater increase in fresh weight of shoot was observed where P. lilacinus was used with carbofuran followed by the use of P. lilacinus alone.
